Introduction:Tekken Tag Tournament was released in arcades worldwide in 1999 and was released on PlayStation 2 in 2000. Finally, it came bundled in the Tekken: Hybrid package on PlayStation 3 in 2011. It is much different to other Tekken entries and many fans believe it to be the best of the series.Tekken Tag Tournament HD comes with 36 trophies, and even new players could get them all in one day. Of course, if you have prior experience with Tekken Tag Tournament or even just Tekken in general, this'll be incredibly easy for you.

ROADMAP:-

I - Arcade ModeIf this is your first time playing Tekken Tag Tournament, you'll find in comparison to Tekken 6 (if you've played it) that Tekken Tag has a much more robust fighting system. Most noticably, it is a slower system, and this can be what most players will find will make the Platinum difficult.

As seen in the overview, it is possible to attain every Arcade Mode trophy in one go. However, I highly recommend two playthroughs; one based on getting the miscellaneous trophies on Normal Mode and the second playthrough solely dedicated to Eternal Champion.

Nonetheless, in Arcade Mode, try to get the various miscellaneous trophies available. You should unlock the following:

II - Practice ModeHead into Practice Mode. You'll only be here for a bare minimum of 10 minutes. Try getting the simple trophies listed here. None should pose any difficulty, check under the respective trophies for details:

Watch Your BackJuggernautSerious Damage

III - The Multiple Extra ModesThis is Team Battle, Versus, Time Attack and Survival, which are the multiple extra modes. The bulk of your trophy hunting will happen here, and some trophies (most notably, OOHRAAAH and Chicken!) will pose problems to new players of the franchise.

IV - Tekken BowlThis mode requires practice and skill. Tekken Bowl is a fun mini-game loved by Tekken fans; but the trophies are no easy task, especially for newcomers. Again, further information under the listed trophies:

Throwing Rocks!STRIKE!Doctor B!TURKEY!King of Iron Fist

Conclusion:A very easy Platinum. Practice is the only thing needed, and a small bit of patience. Anyways, let’s move onto the actual trophy guide!

This should come relatively naturally when you’re going for the other Tekken Bowl trophies, but if you’re really stuck and can’t get a strike do as follows: Pick any of the Jacks (Jack-2, P. Jack, or Gun Jack). Even though their moves’ speed are very fast, you’re almost guaranteed a strike. Keep trying with these guys and a strike should come.

This is a quick and easy Bronze trophy. Go into Arcade, choose Kazuya as your first option and Devil as your second. Once in a match, simply tag out (press a shoulder button) and instead of the usual character-run-out-character-run-in sequence, Kazuya will quickly transform into Devil. Bronze unlocked.

If you’ve got a character you’re good at, this trophy should come naturally during a play through of Arcade. If not, and you’re having a nasty time (which you shouldn’t, as Normal Arcade is pretty easy), pick Paul and spam his Burning Fist move, which is used with the commands .

The onlooker you’re aiming for is Doctor Bosconovitch. He is clearly noticeable as he is wearing a white lab coat to the left of the bowling pins. Simply choose any character. Press and instead of aiming the cursor, move the screen left so Doctor Bosconovitch is directly in front of you. Throw the ball as centre as possible and, if successful, K.O will be pointing left and the commentator will say it as well. The trophy should then click.

Ah, attack reversals. We’ll encounter more of these with the only slightly difficult trophy in this game. Head into VS Mode, and *hopefully* you’ll have a second controller and *hopefully* another person to use it. I’m not exactly sure of the characters who can do reversals (there’s only a selected few) so pick Nina for safety’s sake. Get the second player to input at you, then, in the short time frame you have, press . If successful, Nina will grab their arm and seem to snap it. That’s a reversal. Repeat 25 times over.

This mode is quite enjoyable so should come naturally if you play this mode regularly. If not, set a team of your best characters (or at least, characters you know a combo or two of) and play matches of 8, for safety’s sake (I played in teams of 2 to speed the process, but the trophy did not unlock for me, strangely). After 5 of these, the trophy will soon unlock.

In Survival mode, you play matches continuously until your health is completely depleted. It’s not as bad as it sounds, a fraction of your health replenishes after each separate battle. Pick two good characters and 10 matches should fly. If you’re having trouble, spam Paul’s Burning Fist move () and pick a strong character for back-up and you should get there.

Easy enough, once you have a second controller. Do this in VS Mode. When the opponent attempts a grab (either or ), press the exact same buttons. If successful, your character, once grabbed, will push them off. Do this a measly 5 times and this trophy is yours.

Sliding dashes are simple feats. All you must do is go into Practice Mode. Select any character you like, let’s pick Jin. Keep moving back until you hit the level wall, then make a dash for them. When you’re relatively close, hit the button and the character should slide under the opponent. It’s pretty simple. Rinse ‘n’ repeat 10 times.

Another easy Bronze. Head into Practice Mode and choose Xiayou. I did it with her, there are definitely other characters who can do this, but she’s the only one I know of. Back up all the way to the level wall then run towards the opponent and press . Xiayou should jump and do a roll, knocking the opponent away. Repeat this 10 times and the trophy will unlock.

This is a tiny bit more complicated, but still of low difficulty. There’s a big variety of launchers in this game, but forums (and myself) agree this is the easiest. Pick Heihachi and Jin. Press , then tag Jin in and press , . Repeat 20 times for this Bronze trophy.

Without a second controller youíll have minor difficulty with this. If you have a second controller, switch it on, head into Versus Mode and use the second controller to beat up your character until they have only a sliver of health left. Then take place of the beaten-up character and, in return, beat up the second controller-player to death. This trophy should then unlock.

I Believe I Can Fly
Damage opponent with P. Jack's Giant Foot Stomp while tagging in.

Head into Arcade, Versus, whatever and pick whatever first character you want with P. Jack as your second character. Switch out your first character immediately and just as they run out, press . If done correctly, P. Jack should land in, kicking the opponent (obviously, the oppenent must be pretty close). If done successfully, the trophy will unlock.

Saw it Comin'!
Perform 10 Low Parries.

Low Parries arenít hard (they only are if you donít have a second controller!) Get a friend to take control of the second controller and get them to input (this is just an example). In return, as the attack is incoming, you press . Opposite to blocking, it protects your character and leaves you at an advantage. Perform this 10 times.

Juggernaut
Deal 10,000 total damage in Practice.

This isnít hard at all. Go into Practice Mode with any character and start dealing out the damage (thereís a counter in the corner also, to keep track). This is cumulative over multiple sessions in Practice Mode so it must not all be done in one go.

Doormat
Perform 10 Running Stomp attacks.

In Versus Mode, Arcade Mode, whatever you want, get the opponent (or, a second controller-player) to lie on the ground (tons of moves fall enemies; grabs most of the time do the best). Then, simply back up to the level wall and run towards the opponent, not stopping. The character should stamp on the opponent. Repeat this only 10 times for the trophy.

Cat-like Reflexes
Escape Mounted Punches 5 times.

Mounted Punches are when the opponent is pinning you down and punching you in the face. Get a second controller to do this, then input the correct buttons in response to escape it. Letís take the easiest example:

Controller One - Pick whatever character you want.
Controller Two - Pick Paul.

Controller Two starts with , . If done correctly, Paul will have mounted the character. Now, have him start punching your character (preferably with the button). Now, quickly press with Controller One. Do this a measly five times.

What's My Name?
Change Unknown's moveset 5 times in one match.

This is just too easy. Go into Arcade or Versus Mode. Pick Unknown as the first character and whoever you want as the second. Upon the beginning of the match, press the Tag-Out button (Tag-Out with ). Switch Unknown back in. Her moves will be different. Do this 5 times!

Flawless Victory
Clear Arcade on Normal or harder difficulty without using a single continue.

Very easy Silver trophy. Arcade Mode on Normal (which I think is the default difficulty, unless tweaked in the Options menu) is relatively easy in my opinion, so simply pick your best characters and enjoy the 8 levels! If youíre having trouble somehow, you can simply spam Paulís Burning fist move (), but no one should have to go to those lengths.

All or Nothing
Win a round with Yoshimitsu's Suicide technique.

Go into Versus Mode, and if you have a second controller this makes the trophy slightly easier, but itís definitely not needed. If you do though, switch it on and head into Versus Mode. Now obviously you pick Yoshimitsu as the first character. Second character doesnít matter, nor do the opponents. Once in, keep hitting the opponent ensuring they have a small amount of health left. Now to do his Suicide technique, press . If successful heíll use his sword, stab it into himself and if the opponent is relatively close, itíll stab them also. This is it. Make sure you donít lose all your health as well as that goes against the whole requirement of the trophy.

Watch Your Back
Perform 5 back throws.

Head into Practice Mode with any characters. Since the opponent stays idle, simply rotate around them until you are standing as close as possible and right behind them. Now, just input any of the two grab moves ( or ). Back throws are much stronger grabs as they are harder to pull off against real moving opponents. Rinse and repeat.

Serious Damage
Deal more than 60 damage with a single combo in Practice.

There are many ways to do this and if you're proficient with any character you should be able to get this regardless, however an excellent strategy found by Kniffin is as follows:

The third hit will pop your opponent into the air. Use Demented Snake again to juggle 3 more hits and you'll do 86 damage. Should pop up immediately.

There are a load of Special Tag Throws in Tekken Tag Tournament, but this is the easiest. Pick King and Armour King in the aforementioned order in Practice Mode and press and tag. Armour King will tag in after the move with a suplex.

The A Team
Win an 8 character Team Battle match on Hard or higher difficulty.

Pick Hard and head into Team Battle. Primarily, people would tend to go for the strongest characters in the game (Heihachi, Jin, Paul, Law, the variations of Jack, etc.), so if you so wish to do that, feel free. I used my best characters (Nina, Xiayou, etc.) and if you have characters you are particularly good at, use them! If you do though, have a few strong characters for back-up just in case. Once again if any problems occur, you can use Paulís Burning Fist (). This should get you through a fair chunk of the battles with a high amount of health left over.

Eternal Champion
Clear Arcade on the hardest difficulty.

Although clearing Arcade on the hardest difficulty may be daunting at first with the correct combinations of characters and utilising their combos well it is much easier than you'd think. The enemies use more dangerous combos and activate throws more often. If you can do this with your best characters, go ahead and do it, but if youíre experiencing trouble use Paulís Burning Fist (), with a strong character in back-up.

OOHRAAAH
Clear Time Attack in under 06'00"00.

Time Attack is one of the modes of Tekken Tag Tournament HD in which you must complete Arcade Mode in a certain time limit. For fighting game veterans this shouldn't pose too much problems however for new players this could bequite difficult. If trouble arises, spam Paulís Burning Fist (). This could be the move that helps you just to scrap by however if you still find difficulty in this mode, check this method, found by Binks:

I've managed to do 04:19 on first try! What make it easier with this character for beginners is that the moves are really easy to pull out.

Throwing Rocks!
Achieve a score of 200 or more in Tekken Bowl.

This can be quite difficult and may require a few tries but it is very well achievable. At least 5 strikes are required for this trophy. Have a good back-up character in case you do not get a strike (Bryan is a good example). The variation of Jacks are a bit too overpowered, but can work. Alternatively, you could use a very helpful tip in a video given to me by Kildot:

This is the easiest gold trophy in the game. Go into Versus Mode and highlight Mokujin, but do not choose him. Press over his name and itíll activate Tetsujin, with a second character of your choice. Now simply win 10 times to unlock this trophy.

Judo Legend
Perform 30 Ukemi techniques.

This is among one of the easiest trophies in the game. I got this during my first few minutes of playing the game and wasnít even thinking about it. Press any button when falling to the floor from an attack and youíll either roll closer/further from the opponent or get up and attack (roll by either or ). This is an Ukemi! Perform it a simple 30 times.

One Man Army
Win 10 rounds without tagging.

This may/may not come naturally, depending on how the tides of the battles turn. Go into Arcade or Versus Mode and while in battle, do not touch the shoulder buttons (these buttons trigger the Tag-Out move). Winning a round without Tagging will add towards the trophy. It is cumulative, so it does not have to be earned all in one play through.

TURKEY!
Achieve 3 consecutive strikes in Tekken Bowl.

This could be hard for some, but relatively easy for others. To achieve this trophy, head into Tekken Bowl Mode and pick whichever characters you wish and try to land as many Strikes as possible. If youíre having trouble, I recommend any of the variations of Jack because, although their throws are overpowered, they almost always land Strikes. Just try to centre the throw as much as possible.

Beyond Perfection
Achieve 30 perfect victories.

Switch on a second controller, head into Versus Mode and beat up the lifeless opponent, ensuring your health bar remains intact. Do this 30 times. When you reach the 10 perfect victories mark, you will unlock the Didn't Break A Sweat! trophy.

Chicken!
Successfully reverse an Attack Reversal.

An attack reversal (detailed under Counter Master) must be countered a second time. This is the only trophy in the game that pose quite a bit of difficulty if you havenít a second controller. Anyway, hereís a strategy:

1st Controller - Bryan

2nd Controller - Jin

Controller 1 - Press .

Controller 2 - Reverses this by pressing

Controller 1 - Reverses this reversal by pressing

The time frame to input the buttons in response is very slim, so be alert. Once you get the idea you can earn it relatively quickly, itís easier to execute than people make out.

However, if you are still experiencing problems earning this trophy, here's a simplified method, credit to Se7en0ps:

2 - Go to ''controller setup''
3 - Under the 1st player's macros, set the L1 button to become LP+LK, then ''L2'' to become ''LP'' (the equivalent of your square button).
4 - Under the 2nd player's macros, set the L1 button to become LP+LK.

RESUME FIGHT

Then, the steps are as you know them, but all the buttons will become much more accessible. Using the D-pad, you'll have to do:

This can be quite difficult and I required a few tries to get it, but it is very well achievable. I used Heihachi. He is superb when it comes to Strikes and youíll need a lot of them to reach 200 points. At least 5 strikes are required for this trophy. Have a good back-up character in case you do not get a strike like Bryan or someone. The variation of Jacks are a bit too overpowered, but still you can get strikes with the Jacks a bit easier than average characters. Experiment and keep Heihachi as choice number one.

True, but P. Jack was the one who helped me earn this. Managed 6 strikes in a row. Step a little to the right, spin meter in the middle, and power meter 50-70%.

This is just too easy. Go into Arcade or Versus Mode. Pick Unknown as the first character and whoever you want as the second. Upon the beginning of the match, press the Tag-Out button (shoulder buttons). Switch Unknown back in. Her moves will be different. Do this 5 times!

No no, simply click five times.

Press + + then tag Jin in and press + + . Repeat 20 times for this Bronze trophy.

, + is better and more consistent with the guide.
